Indeed, but there doesn't need to be. There's not a lot of use for
multiple different "styles" of shadows. Inset is pretty much the only
one I can think of.
That said, if box-shadow became a shorthand property, inset/normal
would certainly be done by a property of its own.

Who implements box-shadow-style? Chrome and FF don't, in my quick testing.

I'd rather avoid making shorthands really complex. ^_^
